Smuggler's Bay, BC Mainland

Leaving Garden Bay we stopped at the govt wharf to fill our water and grab a shower. We were headed for Secret Cove to get fuel and then make a decision on our anchorage for the night. Secret Cove was just as clean and the dock hands were as friendly as we remembered them to be in early June. We refueled and headed out thinking we would go to Thormandy Islands. As we made the approached we changed our minds and revisited Smugglers Cove. It was sunny, warm and we were able to get a perfect stern tie off a granite wall. It afforded us a magnificent sunset view. The marine park had a nice interpretive trail which went along the point. Lots of nice overlooks and some cool history as well.  I think we are getting much better at the stern ties. This park had permanent rings to run the line thru.
